MAICHEJEWAN

I'm Winnie and welcome to ‘Maiche Jewan' , which translates to ‘Mum's food', in our mother tongue Konkani. My children gifted me this website for my 65th birthday and this is where I share traditional Mangalorean and other recipes I have cooked over the past 40 years... Looking back, I remember my mum who kept me away from the kitchen as a child emphasizing on the importance of my attention to studying. She was a smart lady who hadn't had the chance to go to school herself. This meant that I learnt to cook only after I was married. My mum looked proud yet stunned at how I had picked up cooking in such a short time.
